The depth of the quake could not be determined, but is assumed to be shallow.The quake was not felt (or at least not reported so).Quake Data | Interactive map | Seismograms | User reports | Aftershocks | Earlier quakes here | Quakes in the Philippines | Quakes in Taiwan | Cagayan Valley | Ilocos | Cordillera Administrative RegionHint: Click on the image to see different maps of this quake!Moderate magnitude 4.7 earthquake at unknown depth16 Jul 01:23 UTC: First to report: RaspberryShake after 8 minutes.16 Jul 01:29: Now using data updates from GFZUpdate Thu, 16 Jul 2026, 01:24Moderate magnitude 4.5 quake hits 84 km north of Sanchez-Mira, Philippines in the morningA shallow magnitude 4.5 earthquake was reported in the morning near Sanchez-Mira, Cagayan, Cagayan Valley, Philippines. According to the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake, the quake hit on Thursday, July 16th, 2026, at 9:15 am local time at a shallow depth of 10. km. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly than deeper ones as they are closer to the surface. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report. Towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Namuac (pop. 3,000) located 80 km from the epicenter, Claveria (pop. 10,600) 83 km away, Sanchez-Mira (pop. 26,300) 84 km away, Santa Cruz (pop. 2,300) 88 km away, Santa Praxedes (pop. 4,600) 90 km away, and Aparri (pop. 68,400) 111 km away. VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant news about the quake become available.
